new cpu cooler

[RedOctober]

Actually 4 and 3 pin fans are both compatible with each other

 

i didnt know that! thanks.

i have a pretty large case, Coolmaster Storm Sniper. It is built extra wide to fit huge heatsinks plus case fans on the side panel.

get a tuniq tower then

it's not just the case, tuniq's are huge in EVERY way. They're wide, they have massive baseplates, they have a large and obtuse mounting system, the heatpipes sit wide... unless your motherboard has LOTS of clearance around the CPU slot in all directions it's better to stick with the Noctua or TRUE.

search newegg for a tuniq tower 120 extreme

i can vouch for tuniq tower being extremely quiet, mine even has a knob on the back that allows me to change how fast its running real quick.

but yeah, fans are pretty loud.

i was considering the tuniq tower but my ram is sitting too close to my cpu fot it to fit

i think im going with the slightly more expensive Noctua

SVC will have the same stuff and be cheaper than newegg and are basically as good as newegg to buy from.

If they haven't shipped yet i think you can cancel without penalty.
